2013 Map of M F Mountain

About this map

M F Mountain and the high desert terrain of Moffat County define this section of the Colorado landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The drainage patterns of Wolf Creek and the Middle Fork Wolf Creek are the primary natural features, carving through landmarks such as Wolf Creek Canyon and Bear Canyon. Human activity is centered on ranching and water management, evidenced by the scattered network of reservoirs including Mancos Reservoir Number 1, Baking Powder Reservoir, and the Peterson Draw Reservoir 1. Remote outposts like Petes Post and the Bar 74 Ranch sit near expansive landforms like Maverick Flats and Baking Powder Ridge. This map illustrates a region where life is dictated by the availability of water, marked by numerous named springs such as Wild Horse Spring and Three Springs, and the seasonal flows of The Sloughs.
